If you can help facilitate a CL purchase east of Sacramento in the Folsom Lake area, I'd appreciate it. Thanks...

Seeking a facilitator in Seattle to help out with a modern C&V-ish bike - it is a surprise gift for a friend.
I'd either need someone willing to disassemble and pack it for shipping, or be willing to facilitate just the purchase and take the bike from the seller to Recycled Cycles for packing.
Whatever works best.
Will compensate for pack/ship/gas as the case may be.

I would of course compensate you for the facilitation and/or send you campy nuovo record or ultegra parts if you like.
would only require pickup from shop and just toss in a box and ship via bike flights by having fedex pick it up or dropping off at fedex kinkos
thanks for any leads you may have.
hope you are all well and keep in touch. i can faciliate in sac or fl if needed.

Preferred Contact: PM or e-mail through site.
State(s): Idaho/Eastern WA
Primary CL City: Pullman/Moscow
Secondary CL Cities: Spokane WA, Northern Idaho, Lewiston ID
Items willing to facilitate: small items up to whole bikes
I realize my area is not a big metro area, but have access to Spokane and much of Idaho. Boise is 5+ hours away, so that's a harder one to do for me.

Seeking a facilitator in Kansas City
Hi - I'm seeking someone to help facilitate a CL buy in Kansas City. The buyer doesn't seem interested in anything other than a local cash sale and pickup. All I really need is for someone to complete the purchase and then bring the bike to a local shop. I'll work with the shop to pack and ship the bike. Can anyone help out? Of course I'm willing to pay the facilitator to do the packing and shipping drop off as well, but that is not necessary. Appreciate any help!

Just looping back 'cause it drives me nuts when we don't hear any reviews or follow-ups on facilitations, especially considering the OP in this thread hasn't updated the list since 2012.
@septacycles was instrumental in helping facilitate shipping on a recent score in Loveland, CO (north of Denver). I saw he hadn't logged in for a few months so PM'ed with my email address so he could avoid dealing with logins and other crap (which I think is good practice!)
Responded super fast! Was very willing to help me out, gave a selection of a couple shops in Loveland and Fort Collins to work with, both just north of Denver. Packing was above-par for other shops I've dealt with in the past. Bike arrived two days ahead of schedule and in the exact condition expected.
So, in the event any BF'ers are hunting in the north-Denver area, here's a glowing review for the white-glove treatment I received! Extra props also go to wrench monkeys at The Extra Mile in Loveland that boxed it up. Kris rocks! Thanks guys!
